I always love working with children. I never had children of my own. God has his purposes. God didn't let me have children so everybody's children could be mine. That's kind of how I'm looking at it.

More quotes by Dolly Parton
Wondering if God loves us when we're cheating? Oh, but why he lets us feel things, if it's wrong.
Dolly Parton
I want to be like one of those little fainting goats that get scared and then just fall over. I want to go and go and then drop dead in the middle of something I'm loving to do. And if that doesn't happen, if I wind up sitting in a wheelchair, at least I'll have my high heels on.
Dolly Parton
I didn't know any gay people in my childhood.
Dolly Parton

Dolly Parton
Leave something good in every day.
Dolly Parton
I feel that sin and evil are the negative part of you, and I think it's like a battery: you've got to have the negative and the positive in order to be a complete person.
Dolly Parton
Jump out of bed and I stumble to the kitchen, pour myself a cup of ambition and yawn and stretch and try to come alive.
Dolly Parton
I think people take me as seriously as I want them to. They take me as seriously as I take myself - let's put it that way.
Dolly Parton
Depression runs in my family on both sides, and I have to be wary.
Dolly Parton
I've never been a feminist.
Dolly Parton
I'm not sixty, I'm sexty.

I'm very upfront and very honest. I don't let a bunch of stuff fester and boil over.
Dolly Parton
